The last time I used an Android device was November 2009, the Verizon Droid, the device that put Android on the map. A big-time device, updated software on a major carrier. I enjoyed the device but it fell quite a ways short of competing with the iOS.
Today, I am back in the game – on a trial basis. I purchased the Samsung nexus S from Best Buy Mobile, with T-Mobile service. This device is supposed to the pure and unfiltered (by the carrier) Android experience. I can return it within 14 days so I need test (1) the hardware; (2) the software; and (3) the T-Mobile network in my area over the next week. T-Mobile is the one major carrier I have no experience.
My primary point of comparison is the Apple iPhone 4 on AT&T which I have used since it release. Check back here to hear my impressions of the “pure” Android experience.
